How to Free Convert WMA to Android supported format for playback?

WMA is a file extension used with Windows Media Player. WMA stands for Windows Media Audio. WMA is both an audio format and an audio codec. WMA was intended to be a competitor for the MP3 and RealAudio audio formats. WMA still remains widely used today, the number of devices and programs that support the proprietary codec pales in comparison to those that support the MP3 format. If you listen to music on anything remotely similar to a Android phone or tab, you’ll likely have to convert your WMA files into a more accessible format for Android before enjoying your tunes.

After above settings, click the big “Convert” button to start to convert wma to mp3 for Android. Once the conversion is done, simply click the “Open output folder” button, find the created file and watch it freely.

Insert the CD the music is on and rip it. The music can be ripped by selecting the "Rip" tab in Windows Media Player. When music is "ripped," it is pulled from the CD and saved as another file. In this case, it is saved as a WMA file.
